Hello
My name is Cynthia Hayes, and I will be graduating from NWTC spring 2024 with a degree in Graphic Design. I enjoy creating new and original designs and taking photos. Check out my Graphic Design page for my best projects and/or my photography for my favorite photos I’ve taken.
My Story
I was born and raised in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin. The majority of my childhood was spend helping my dad in his junkyard but when I wasn’t with my parents, I was with my aunt who taught ceramic classes out of her basement. Some of my best childhood memories contain her teaching me painting skills like dry brushing and glazing. I believe that my love for art and design came from her. When she died, I ended up quitting creative work until high school when I realized that I’m just not living life to the fullest unless I am doing something creative.
